Kipawa's Christmas Appeal this year is raising funds to support a new 'Kickstarter class' in Mukuyu School.

A Kickstarter class is designed to help reintegrate kids that have missed large parts of their schooling back into the school environment. These are often the children who are least well-off and who will benefit most from the smaller class size, social work support and focussed intervention to Kickstart their education.

So far, we are delighted to say we have managed to raise £2,046.25 – over 80% of the total of £2,500 needed to set up the class! Thank you so much to everyone who has contributed so far.

We know it's an expensive time of year for many of you, but please support us if you can – whatever you can give will really make a difference to the lives of all the children that get a second chance at an education.
